796 must

i just changed out the stock shock for a sachs shock off a 1100 hyper and man does it make a difference.

i had the 796 dialed in pretty good but it still wasn't perfect,now with the new shock no more squat in the rear. on the stock 796 shock,to set sag i had the preload collars almost all the way at the bottom to get to 35mm of race sag,the new 1100 shock its at the top to get the same sag number,so it obviously has a stiffer spring rate in it.and also no more wallow in high speed turns.
i did have to move the O2 senor to a different spot but that was easy.got a
O2 bung of ebay for 3 bucks and had a muffler shop weld it in for 20 bucks.cant beat that!

you still have your 1100 height adj bar set at the same level or did you change it. And is the relocation of the O2 sensor something I could do with the stock catted pipe?
